| Summary: | Rubrics are tools used to measure student performance through group work. Instructors should know the use of rubrics to assess student assignments in groups. This study was conducted to identify the level of knowledge in rubric usage for group assignments among Vocational College instructors in the state of Johor, Malaysia. Differences in instructors’ rubric usage knowledge for group assignments based on gender and the relationship between the knowledge and teaching experience were also studied. A total of 293 instructors were involved in this study. A quantitative approach using survey design was applied. The questionnaire containing 15 dichotomous items was administered using the google form application. Data were analysed using SPSS 23. Findings showed that instructors’ knowledge of rubrics used in group work assessment is high. The level of knowledge in rubric usage for group assignments among the instructors was found to have a significant mean difference based on gender. It also has a significant relationship between the level of knowledge in rubric usage for group assignments and teaching experience. In summary, this study is expected to provide input to stakeholders in improving the existing alternative assessment practice in Vocational Colleges in Malaysia. Therefore, suggestions for improvement are given for the intervention. |
